Arp Headstuds
 

Does anyone know where i can get arp headstuds for the 6.5 at a decent price. The cheapest i have seen is 159.99 on summits page?

Never mind, i found the price quote thread section, this is cool!!

welcome i didnt know you were over here. hows the starter?

Just joined the other day. Cool site!! I think the starter is ok, but i will not no till i install the ignition switch, ignition tumbler lock, and ignition alarm switch, and then for safety two battery cutoffs, so if it happens again i will just unscrew them, it wont be done for prolly another week, i wont get the parts till next thursday...

well i hope it all works out good. and driving a 302 mustang to work cant be that bad either for the time being

inexpensive & ARP in same sentence you gotta be kidding right

Note: i didnt say inexpensive, i said decent..
I know you get what ya pay for, i was just seeing if i could get a set for a little chreaper going with a site vendor....

160 bucks for ARP head studs for any engine is friggin cheap, are you sure those aint main studs......cause thats insane cheap......

I really dont know what cheap is for them, i have never gone shopping for headstuds before, ive always used bolts... I found another place that sells them for 260... The summit site says they are for the 6.2 but i think they are the same....

im pretty sure there headstuds. the most boost a 6.5 will probably see is 25 Psi in a heavely modified engine so its a bit shy of the current high performance diesels. dont need as much clamping force

OEM studs are fine at stock boost levels and a engine with a healthy cooling system, unless you expect to run 15+ consistently or do a lot of head gasket changes really no need to swap to ARPs

that is cheep considering the stuads for the cummins are $400+

Yeah, my plans are for a gl4, i want to run 15psi wot... I really want to go to an att but it is just not going to happen right now. I have to get this truck done and my car next year. So prolly a few years from now i will go to an att. It will have a good cooling system, (im upgrading to the newer gpm pump like on a 98 6.5, and i also bought a dual t-stat crossover for 20 bucks. SO it will be a pretty solid build, just want to try and make this truck as bullit proof as possible, im am getting to the point where i need a reliable rig...

i bought some for my 6.2 from thoroughbreddiesel.com for $170. im 90% sure they will fit a 6.5.

got mine for my truck at summit racing for 190. should be on in a couple weeks

That must be with shipping :argh:. I'm so glad Summit is only a 45 minute drive for me :w2:

yeah im close to 7 hours away so ill pay the shipping costs
